Optus opens up Beta Testing on their My Optus app

Optus customers are now being given the opportunity to sign up to a beta testing group for the My Optus app according to an update on their Google Play page. The Beta is being run from a Google Group as opposed to a Google+ community, which is neither here, nor there as there are pros and cons for both.

If you’re an Optus customer, use the My Optus Android App and are interested in trying out new things; you can head to the My Optus Beta Google Group and join. Once done you can head over to the My Optus Beta Google Play page and sign in as a tester. Finally, check in on the My Optus Google Play page and download any updates.

At this stage there does not appear to be a changelog for differences in the Beta My Optus App. We’ve approached Optus to see if they can supply one and we’ll update if we get something. Till then go check it out.

Dan is a die-hard Android fan. Some might even call him a lunatic. He's been an Android user since Android was a thing, and if there's a phone that's run Android, chances are he owns it (his Nexus collection is second-to-none) or has used it.

Dan's dedication to Ausdroid is without question, and he has represented us at some of the biggest international events in our industry including Google I/O, Mobile World Congress, CES and IFA.

I generally just check the Communities page in the G+ app. But no, there doesn’t appear to be one place where you can check, as they cross G+ as well as Google Groups. Would be definitely a benefit to have it as a section in Google Play.
